Let's Guess - Why Won't Trump Pay His Pollster????

Seems like he's "taken issue" with some of the services Tony Fabrizio provided.

This gives me hope.

you cannot withhold money because it does not meet you unquantifiable "satisfaction". You can fire the contractor for future, but you have to pay for work done - whether you liked it or not.

Most of the people Trump ripped off say he told them, "I spent too much on this project already, I'm not paying you any more.

anybody who chooses to work for him without getting paid in full, up front, is a fool. of course, anybody who chooses to work for this thieving pervert is a fool by definition.
